Chapter 46: The issue of heirs (please collect and read)

“Let’s go to Cuiyun Tower to have a drink first.” Wei Tu was the first to break the silence.

He glanced at Wei Fei and said: "I owe you a meal, second brother, and I haven't found time to make up for it. I have a break today, and I just got my salary some time ago..."

Whether Fu Zhizhou chose to abide by the covenant, Wei Tu said that he didn't care. It was a lie. It was better to have an extra helper in the officialdom of Shannan Road than to fight alone.

However, compared to Wei Fei, Wei Tu is more confident that he can stand out in the next provincial examination and become a martial arts examiner.

At that time, even without Fu Zhizhou's help, he was able to escape the suppression of the Qingfeng Prefecture and the prefect He's party and get ahead.

Without the help of Fu Zhizhou, the most promising "fourth brother", he also had Wei Fei, a good friend from the same county, and they were in the same boat.

"Okay, third brother." When Wei Fei heard Wei Tu's words, he felt less disappointed.

He smiled, got out in simple clothes, and walked towards Cuiyun Tower with Wei Tu.

 During the two months when the two were officials in the Xiangjun Yamen, Wei Tu, as the military envoy who "rewarded merit and punished crime", did not get along much with the soldiers below and did not have deep feelings.

 But Wei Fei is different. He is the "duojiao" of the Xiang Army, responsible for martial arts drills, and hangs out with the soldiers all day long. There are few people in the entire Qingshan County who don't know Wei Fei.

Come to Cuiyun Tower.

Wei Tu spared all his money and spent seven coins to buy a table of good banquets to thank Wei Fei for his generosity in going to Jian Liang's house with him last time to give gifts.

On the table, there are all kinds of meat dishes such as sea cucumbers roasted with green onions, pork elbows in sauce, Sixi meatballs, stir-fried kidneys and so on.

There are also the current seasonal cold dishes and fresh fruits.

 At the same time, Wei Tu spent two more coins and asked the shopkeeper of Cuiyun Tower to buy a pot of fine "peach blossom wine".

 Wei Fei saw Wei Tu being so generous and generous, and his evaluation of Wei Tu immediately went up a notch, and he felt that he had made the right choice to become his sworn brother, Wei Tu.

The two of them drank three rounds of wine and tasted five dishes.

Wei Fei blushed and said with a loud tongue: "Eldest brother Kou Liang and fourth brother Fu Zhizhou, even if Wei doesn't recognize them, they still recognize you, third brother..."

After finishing speaking, he put his arm around Wei Tu's shoulders and fell asleep deeply on the dining table.

When Wei Tu heard this, he shook his head, and after taking off Wei Fei's arm, he was too drunk and fell asleep next to Wei Fei.

He understood that Fu Zhizhou's success and fame had actually enhanced his relationship with Wei Fei. The two of them were in trouble together... and it was easier for them to hold each other together for warmth.

…

time flies.

In a blink of an eye.

It was the twenty-fifth year of Qing'an.

On New Year's Day this year, Wei Tu took Xinghua to Shan Wuju's house to pay New Year greetings, but did not return to Weijiazhai, Changming Township.

In the more than half a year since Wei Tu was appointed as an official, the clan chief of Weijiazhai sent young people from the village to find Wei Tu many times, hoping that Wei Tu would recognize his ancestors and return to the clan, and return to Changming Township to worship his ancestors.

But Wei Tu refused them all.

A few years ago, when he left Weijiazhai, Wei Tu was still very upset about the fact that he and Xinghua could not worship in the ancestral hall, but today, he has gradually let go of this.

However.

Let go of relief.

Wei Tu was not an unjust one. He knew the reason why the leader of the Weijiazhai clan wanted him to recognize his ancestor and return to the clan. It was simply because he took a fancy to his status as a military attache and wanted the clansmen of the Weijiazhai clan to come and get a share. Light.

Of course, Wei Tu was not heartless towards his biological father Wei Bao. He wrote to Wei Bao and planned to let Wei Bao move in with him and live with him for the rest of his life.

Poor people in this era do not have many choices.

Wei Tu knows this.

He does not regret that Wei Bao sold him to the Li family, and when he returned to his hometown to visit relatives, Wei Bao urged him to leave early...

The former is for him to survive during the famine years, while the latter is for him not to be humiliated in Weijiazhai. If Wei Bao hadn't secretly given him a couple of dollars when he returned to his hometown to visit relatives, his redemption would probably have been delayed for a long time.

And that...a little more than one tael is almost Wei Bao's entire net worth.

However, what Wei Tu did not expect was that his father Wei Bao made a decision that was completely opposite to that of the Weijiazhai clan leader—

Not only did he not cling to him as a "powerful person", but he actively separated himself from his eldest son.

Wei Bao sent a message, saying that he had a son on his knees and that Wei Tu did not need to raise him any more. Let Wei Tu and Xinghua live their own lives and just give him some gifts every year.

See this.

Wei Tu had no choice but to give up.

He chose to respect Wei Bao's opinion and gave Wei Bao some gifts, clothing and food every year.

—After becoming the "Capital Military Envoy", although he was financially well-off, he still had to pay back Caixia... The sum of Xinghua's ransom money and the money to buy the small courtyard was not a small amount.

With his wealth, it is okay to raise one Weibao, but raising two more brothers of his own is a bit too much.

Half a young man, I will starve to death.

therefore.

Since he could not return to Weijiazhai to visit his relatives, Wei Tu could only take Xinghua to Shan Wuju’s house to pay New Year greetings.

Master, like a teacher or a father.

When he left Changming Township last year, Shan Wuju said that he lent Wei Tu the green horse worth a hundred taels, but it was not much different from giving it as a gift.

After Wei Tu completed the martial arts examination, he never asked for the single martial arts examination.

“Yonv didn’t come this time, probably because she was angry from last year…”

Shan Min was sitting in the living room, looking at Shan Yangong, Wei Tu, and Xinghua in front of him, and sighed secretly.

Even though she was slightly disgusted with Shan Fang's "greed for money", without Shan Fang chattering and making noise in her ears, she always felt that something was missing.

Besides, Shan Fang didn’t come, and naturally he didn’t bring her or Shan Wu’s only grandson, Shan Yiwu.

“Yan Gong, if that doesn’t work, you can take a concubine. It’s not a big deal if your wife never gives birth to a child…”

Shan Min looked at Shan Yangong, who was standing with his hands tied, frowned and said.

When she was in Fucheng, she could not talk too much because she was worried about Shan Yangong's wife, but when she arrived in Sanyuan Township, she no longer had to worry about it.

"Mother, this matter..." Shan Yangong hesitated.

"Listen to mother, in a few days, mother will find a matchmaker for you in Sanyuan Township," Shan Min said firmly.

Hearing this, Shan Yangong sighed and could not persuade him any more, so he silently chose to accept it.

He has no heirs, which is why he can't hold his head high in front of Shan Fang.

"Brother Wei, we all want a son..." Xinghua on the side saw this scene, her mind moved, she pinched Wei Tu's hand and neck next to her, and asked in a low voice.

Hearing this, Wei Tu raised his eyebrows and said, "We'll talk about this in a few years. We're not in a hurry."

He has talked with Shan Wuju about the innate martial arts masters in the past six months, and heard more about the miraculous things about the innate martial arts masters from his mouth.

Innate martial arts masters, in addition to interrogating people's spiritual mysteries, can also help unborn fetuses "cleanse the marrow of the I Ching".

The fetus that has been "conditioned" by the innate martial arts master will be born with martial arts skills that far exceed those of ordinary people, and its martial arts practice will make great strides with each passing day.

If possible, Wei Tu plans to think about the issue of heirs after arriving at the Xiantian Martial Master.

—You can’t let the white-haired person send the black-haired person away.
